School Based Volunteer Opportunities
| Golden Gate High | Lieutenant Colonel Paul Garrah | 377-1692 | Webmaster for School Website. Work mostly from home. We are looking for someone who has the time to help keep families/kids informed so if you can use PowerPoint you already have the skills needed to make a difference. |
As updates need to be posted. |
There are many new and easy ways to create professional looking websites and it does not take a programmer to be successful. We are looking at taking our current school website and making it easier to maintain/update. Again, if you are comfortable with programs like PowerPoint you can really help us. Please email or call and we can discuss. Like they say on TV…you are under no obligation! Thank you. | |
